Cool Broccoli-Cheese Soup

For a speedy, rich broccoli-cheese soup, cut stalks off a bunch of broccoli and divide the top into florets. Peel the stalks, cut into ½-inch chunks and cook in 2 cups of chicken broth until barely tender; add the florets and cook another 7 minutes, until tender. Remove from the heat and puree the solids with ½ cup of the broth in a blender (or puree with a stick blender in the pot). Return to the pot and stir in ¼ cup of cream and ½ cup of grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the cheese melts.
